Miz then questioned Lynch about why she needed backup from her partners against Damage CTRL, given that she always claimed to be "The Man" who could handle things alone. ## Lynch quickly retorted that she was indeed The Man, while Miz was just a regular man - an insecure one with a fragile ego. Miz, attempting to defend himself, boasted about his masculinity, stating that Maryse could vouch for his manhood. Lynch sarcastically remarked that it must be reassuring to know that Maryse didn't have much experience with men before meeting him. ## Miz then questioned the motives of Lita and Stratus, wondering why they had returned to the ring just to play backup to Lynch. Lita, with a sharp comeback, reminded him that she was one-half of the Women's Tag Team Champions. ## Suddenly, Damage CTRL interrupted, led by Bayley, who was furious that their upcoming WrestleMania match against Lynch, Lita, and Stratus was being treated as just another match. To them, this match meant everything. Bayley attempted to belittle Lita and Stratus, stating that they were only relevant twenty years ago. Stratus, however, reminded her that Lita was now a current tag team champion, and this matchup would have been a dream for Bayley two decades ago. Now, her goal was simply to end them. ## Lynch then interrupted Bayley's tirade, confronting her about how she had wasted the talents of NXT stars Dakota Kai and IYO SKY, who were now doing nothing because of her. Lynch expressed her frustration that their feud had gone on for far too long since SummerSlam, and that it was finally time to end it at WrestleMania. ## RATING: *** ## Singles Match: Becky Lynch Vs IYO SKY ## In the lead-up to her WrestleMania appearance alongside WWE legends Trish Stratus and Lita against Damage CTRL, Becky Lynch secured a momentous victory by triumphing over IYO SKY in a grueling battle, culminating in a Man-handle Slam that left her opponent reeling. ## WINNER: Becky Lynch ## MATCH RATING: *** ## Seth Rollins Vs Mustafa Ali ## In anticipation of his fiercely personal WrestleMania encounter with Logan Paul, Seth "Freakin" Rollins laid waste to the upbeat Mustafa Ali with a pair of brutal stomps that wiped the smile off his face. ## With the air still thick with tension, Rollins directed a few pointed remarks toward Paul in advance of their impending clash at The Showcase of the Immortals. ## WINNER: Seth Rollins ## MATCH RATING: ** ## Brock Lesnar and Omos weigh-in ## Omos and MVP made their entrance first, with MVP hyping up Brock Lesnar's past WrestleMania wins over wrestling legends like Kurt Angle, Goldberg, Roman Reigns, and even breaking the Undertaker's undefeated streak. However, unlike those men, Lesnar cannot F5 or suplex Omos and will not be able to defeat him at WrestleMania. Omos stepped onto the scale and tipped it at an impressive 410 lbs. ## Lesnar made his entrance with a serious demeanor and immediately went after Omos. Despite Lesnar's efforts, he couldn't knock down Omos, who merely stumbled back into the turnbuckle. Lesnar attempted to grab the scale to use it as a weapon, but Omos kicked him out of the ring and took possession of the scale. ## The crowd began to chant "Suplex City," but Lesnar remained outside the ring, displaying self-doubt once again. ## Eight-man tag match: The Street Profits, Ricochet & Braun Strowman Vs Alpha Academy & The Viking Raiders (w/Valhalla) ## In the lead-up to their WrestleMania Showcase, chaos erupted during the final moments of an Eight-Man Tag Team Match. However, amidst the bedlam, Ricochet utilized Braun Strowman's shoulders as a launching pad, hurtling himself directly onto Erik of The Viking Raiders. Moments later, Montez Ford followed suit by executing a mid-air change of direction, leaping off the top rope, soaring over the towering Strowman, and landing squarely on Erik for the decisive three-count. This epic victory granted massive momentum to Braun Strowman, Ricochet, and The Street Profits, as they charge towards The Showcase of the Immortals. ## WINNERS: The Street Profits, Ricochet & Braun Strowman ## MATCH RATING: ***## Sonya Deville & Chelsea Green Vs Candice LeRae & Michin Mia Yim ## In a match of high stakes, Sonya Deville delivered an unexpected punch to Michin while she was on the apron. This opened the way for Chelsea Green to execute the Unprettier and clinch a hard-earned victory against Michin & Candice LeRae. This triumph secured them the fourth and last spot in the WrestleMania Showcase Fatal 4-Way Tag Team Match, presenting them with an opportunity to compete for the championship title. ## WINNERS: Sonya Deville & Chelsea Green ## MATCH RATING: ** ## Rey Mysterio Vs Damian Priest (w/Dominik Mysterio) ## Rey attempted to execute a 619, but Priest stopped him with a clothesline for a two-count. Rey managed to bring Priest down from the top with a leg scissors takedown and hit a successful 619. However, Dom interfered by pushing Rey from the top rope, resulting in a disqualification. ## As the audience booed, Dom attacked Rey, relentlessly hitting him with blows. Priest held Rey in place as Dom continued to assault him. The situation escalated as Legado Del Fantasma rushed out to the ring. Dom and Priest quickly exited, while the audience chanted "you suck" loudly. ## WINNERS: Rey Mysterio ## MATCH RATING: ** ## Intercontinental Champion Gunther (w/Imperium) Vs Dolph Ziggler in a non-title match ## Gunther blocked a superkick from Ziggler and dropped him with a fierce chop. After a break, Ziggler hit a Fameasser, but it only got him a two-count. Attempting a Stinger splash, Ziggler was met by a chop from Gunther in mid-air. Gunther capitalized on the opportunity and executed a powerbomb followed by his signature move, the Last Symphony, for the pinfall victory. ## WINNER: GUNTHER ## MATCH RATING: ** ## Cody Rhodes Vs Solo Sikoa (w/Paul Heyman) ## The explosive main event between Cody Rhodes and the undefeated Solo Sikoa reached its climax, as The American Nightmare successfully landed the Cross Rhodes on his opponent. However, the Enforcer of The Bloodline had the wherewithal to put his foot on the ropes, breaking the crucial three-count. Soon after, Rhodes missed a moonsault on Solo, but quickly bounced back with a second Cody Cutter of the night. ## Suddenly, Undisputed WWE Tag Team Champions, The Usos, made their way to ringside and attempted to disrupt the action. However, their efforts were thwarted when Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens rushed in to even the odds and engage in a battle with their WrestleMania opponents all the way to the back. Moments later, Rhodes managed to dodge the dreaded Samoan Spike and delivered the Cross Rhodes to Solo for an incredible victory. ## Cody not only successfully navigated a significant challenge on his path to The Showcase of the Immortals, but he also amassed substantial momentum as he prepares for the biggest match of his career against the reigning Undisputed WWE Universal Champion, Roman Reigns, at WrestleMania. ## WINNER: Cody Rhodes ## MATCH RATING: **** ## To stay updated with all the latest combat sports news, add Sacnilk.com to your Google News feeds and follow us on Twitter.
